Explanatory Note
The Men’s Wearhouse, Inc. files this Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A to provide the estimated costs associated with the closure described herein under Item 2.05. The full text of the amended Item 2.05 is set forth below.
Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
On March 3, 2008, The Men’s Wearhouse, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that it will close its Montreal, Quebec-based manufacturing facility operated by Golden Brand Clothing (Canada) Ltd, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Despite previous reductions in production over the last three years, the strengthening Canadian dollar and the increasing pace of imports by the Company’s competitors have caused the Company to reach the decision to close the manufacturing facility and to use other alternate production sources. The Company currently anticipates that the closure will occur on or around July 2008.
The Company expects the total pre-tax charge to be incurred in connection with the closure of the Montreal manufacturing facility to be approximately $8.5 million, which consists primarily of (i) approximately $4.6 million to be paid in severance, (ii) approximately $1.2 million from the write-off of fixed assets, (iii) approximately $1.4 million for lease termination payments and (iv) approximately $1.3 million to finalize the clean-up and closing of the facility. The Company also estimates that approximately $7.3 million of the charge will result in future cash expenditures.
A copy of the press release issued by the Company on March 3, 2008 announcing the planned closure of the Canadian facility is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
